Argentina will be up against Chile in the group stages of Copa America 2024 on Tuesday (June 25).

In their opening game, Argentina delivered an impressive performance against Canada, while Chile managed a draw with Peru. The defending Copa America Champions would be desperate to continue their winning run which may seal their berth for the quarterfinals.

Lionel Messi, Argentina's star player, didn't score but provided the assists as Los Albicelestes won 2-0, with Julian Alvarez and Lautaro Martinez scoring the goals.

Chile, on the other hand, will be eager to improve their recent track record against Argentina, as they haven't secured a win against them since the 2016 Copa America final.

Argentina Team News vs Chile

Argentina coach Lionel Scaloni is expected to name a strong lineup against Chile. Although they won against Canada in the last match, few of the performances were not at the highest level. Hence, we may see a couple of changes in the lineup.

Marcos Acuna played as left-back in the last match but we may see a return of Nicolas Tagliafico in that position. It is to be seen if Lautaro Martinez is named in the starting lineup after scoring a goal in the last match. In the midfield, Enzo Fernandez was a surprise exclusion from the last match but Leandro Paredes looks likely to play in the centre of midfield for the Chile match.
